Other members participating in the group are Dean Butterfield, Elaine Batzer, and Dean Willoughby. There were war stamp drives every week, and we are happy to say that we got our Minute Man flag and topped our goal of 90':, by getting 100‘: pur- chases of War stamps and bonds. Var- ious members of the stamp committee solicited those who had forgotten to buy and found them willing to cooper- ate. (especially the Engineers!) Well, so much for the War Council. In the fall we elected into the Stu- dent Council Dean Willoughby. chair- man, Paul Rupff, Don Sievert, and Fran- ces Fogelsonger from the sophomore class; Joan Blum, secretary, Bruce Otto, Ed Cederberg, and Bob Bixby from the freshmen class.

CAMPUS Dear Jay Cee—Zers So you are ready to conquer the world. We never thought our Alma Mater could seem so empty without your cheery voices ringing down the halls, but we know you have a job to finish before you can return, and we all say —more power to you! Your letters to us have reported on your progress, but we haven’t had the chance to write you what we have been doing since you left. You probably haven't much time to even give us a thought, but it has been different with us. Not a day goes by that someone of us doesn’t mention your name. Just as your life is much different, our life at J. C. has had changes too. Some of the activities have been dis- banded. But even with all the war reg- ulations, we have still been able to do things and see places. You might even be shocked to hear we have more time to study, and we really are working harder. We of the literary staff are devoting the next few pages to writing you a personal letter to let you know what great feats we have been performing. We all hope you enjoy our letter as much as we enjoy writing it. We have a War Council now. Remem- ber we had a Defense Council when you were here, but now it has been reorganized, and we are all-out for Victory. Our purpose is to assist the students in fulfilling our nation’s war

Calender; Paul Rupff, finance; Catherine De Waele, lounge; Pegge McNamara, pins; Margaret La Fountaine, publicity; Frances Fogelsonger, scrapook; Florian Lukowski, booster; Julianne Czajka,. social; and Ed Cederberg, 2ssembly. There was many a laugh tbout the lounge spring cleaning, which was put off until an unhappy group was finally cornered. The committee (apyroved and appointed by popular demand) washed and dusted in tune with a solid Boggiebeat coming from the radio. All is well and serene now, waiting for the summer studdents to take over. Working with the Student Council in directing College affairs, the Women’s League elected Elaine Batzer for president, Julianne Czajka for vice-prcsident, Gretchen Hine as recording secretary, Mar- jorie Johnson as corresponding secretary. The committee chairmen were Wilma Kotesky, Social: Betty Ann Dreyer, Athletic, and Catherine De Waele, Candy. The group leaders:—Aurae—Marion Laundra, Arpalia—Dorothy Bryce, B. O. B.
